Palermo's Street Markets




When I visiting a place, I always visit street market. That is where you can food history, cultural and of course fresh products.
“Sicily's outdoor market tradition dates from the ninth-century Saracen rule of the island, which explains their striking similarity to Arab souqs.”

I am so impressed by mountains of seafood in the open-air market in Palermo. The market is filled with varieties of products, colors and vendor’s shouting. Unfortunately with short stay and no Italian language skills, I cannot do further study on the interesting seafood I saw. Next time…
